Easy SFX is the first system to combine self extraction with a
sensible installation program. When you create an SFX file with
Easy SFX you can pack any directory structure and this will be
reproduced when the SFX is run. You can force the installation to
a fixed main directory name or you can supply a default which the
user can change. You can supply a readme.txt file and the SFX will
display it after extraction. You can even have the SFX file start
your program after extraction. Throughout the extraction process
the SFX file displays an installation screen customized with your
company name.
There is no script language to learn - just tell Easy SFX where
your program files are for packing and the name and location for
the SFX file. The parameters used for each SFX file you make are
recorded in a data file. Any remakes of the same file are simply
a case of choosing the program name from the list of previous
builds.
If you need to distribute self installing software, Easy SFX will
save you hours of work.
